Psalm 22
1. David complains in great discouragement
9. He prays in great distress
23. He praises God














They cried out to You
The phrase "cried out" in Hebrew is "זָעֲקוּ" (za'aku), which conveys a deep, earnest plea for help. This is not a casual request but a desperate call from the depths of one's soul. Historically, this reflects the Israelites' frequent cries to God during times of distress, such as their bondage in Egypt or during the Babylonian exile. It underscores the importance of turning to God in times of need, trusting in His power and willingness to save.

and were set free
The Hebrew root for "set free" is "מָלַט" (malat), meaning to escape or be delivered. This word is often used in the context of God delivering His people from physical or spiritual bondage. The historical context of Israel's deliverance from Egypt serves as a powerful backdrop, symbolizing God's ability to liberate His people from any form of captivity. It is a reminder of the freedom found in God's salvation, both in the Old Testament and through Christ in the New Testament.

they trusted in You
The word "trusted" comes from the Hebrew "בָּטַח" (batach), which implies a sense of security and confidence. Trusting in God is a recurring theme throughout the Psalms and the entire Bible. It reflects a deep-seated faith and reliance on God's character and promises. This trust is not blind but is based on the historical acts of God and His faithfulness to His covenant people. It encourages believers to place their confidence in God, knowing He is trustworthy and faithful.

and were not disappointed
The phrase "not disappointed" is derived from the Hebrew "לֹא בּוֹשׁוּ" (lo bosh), meaning not to be put to shame or confounded. In the biblical context, shame is often associated with defeat or unmet expectations. However, those who trust in God are assured that they will not be put to shame. This assurance is rooted in God's unchanging nature and His commitment to His people. It is a promise that God will honor the faith of those who rely on Him, providing a source of hope and encouragement for believers facing trials.

(5) Confounded--i.e., ashamed.

Verse 5. - They cried unto thee, and were delivered. If they were delivered because they cried, the Sufferer who cries "day and night" (vex. 2) can scarcely remain unheard for ever. They trusted in thee, and were not confounded; or, were not put to shame (οὐ κατησχύνθησαν, LXX.).
